Nikon AF-S DX Nikkor 18-200 IF - ED VR vs. ED VR II

I have seen both of these lenses online and it appears that the "IF - ED VR" is the older version of the "ED VR II" however when I look at the specs it seems they are the exact same lens with the exact same features bar a small difference in the motor. Does anyone know if there is a real difference between the two? If so which would you recommend and why?
